[Harp-L] Harmonica Players , Stand Up and Be Counted/VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! FOR LD MILLER

["todd slobin" <harpdoc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Harp L Community:

As many of you know, LD Miller has taken the country by storm with his 
harmonica playing on Americas' Got Talent.  This is your time, as harmonica 
players, to make a difference.  LD has been interviewed for the harmonica 
documentary and he is the future of the harmonica - not just his playing, 
but his passion.  Let's get the vote out to make sure that LD Miller and the 
harmonica grabs some attention while it can.

August 16 is the night of the finals when all 10 finalists will perform 
8-10pm est and then America will only have that night to vote.  PLEASE VOTE! 
 This could bring a lot of attention to the instrument.  It especially 
brings in a whole new younger generation of interest in the harmonica.  You 
can't discount what kind of attention 25 million viewers on national TV as 
well as a few million more in other countries can do.

The finals voting will be on August 16 and only on August 16 after 10pm est. 
  The phone # will be posted on the screen when they perform that night and 
won't be assigned until the show. You can call free 10 times per phone line 
and you can also vote 10 times on line at www.nbc.com/americasgottalent per 
email address.  You can also send a text message but that costs .50 each 
time.    Please support LD MIller and his family (and the harmonica) by 
voting as much as you can and by emailing and asking friends and family too 
as well.

Thank you for supporting the harmonica and its future.
